【姐妹情深💞】當寵物被前主人遺棄，往往都需要較長時間去克服陰影。這對芝娃娃姐妹互相扶持的故事，正正體現了狗狗優秀的共情能力，教人動容。

芝娃娃QQ與Gig是係異父異母的姊妹。妹妹Gigi被前主人遺棄，甚至差點被安排安樂死。由於被遺棄的陰影太大，Gigi在加入新家庭的初期不敢直視人類或其他狗狗，行路更會駝背😞

身為姐姐嘅QQ善良懂性，即使新來的Gigi霸佔了牠的玩具和床，都不會責怪Gigi。這種默默的包容和遷，正是QQ歡迎Gigi的方式🥺 有QQ的陪伴，加上主人的悉心照顧，Gigi漸漸放下戒心，與QQ成為一對孖公仔，和平相處而且互相尊重🧡

狗狗一直是公認有靈性又聰明的動物，而牠們所擁有的同理心，能感受到人類甚至同類的情緒變化，芝娃娃姐姐QQ就是很好的榜樣💭 雖然姐姐QQ已經到了彩虹橋，但是從狗狗身上體現到的純真、簡單、善良，我們永遠不會忘記🤍

📖#PetoStory 分享 – A dog epitomizes the simple love and kindness
#Chihuahua #QQ #Gigi

How much do you know about what goes on in your pup’s head? Can dogs really read minds? 🧐
It’s said that dogs can perceive changes in human emotional status and also feel empathy for human suffering. Then do they empathize with other dog’s emotions?💭

QQ and Gigi the Chihuahua are sisters without blood relation.🐶🐶 The younger sister Gigi had been abandoned and even nearly been euthanized.😢 It was not surprised that Gigi suffered from emotional issues after being rescued, she dared not to look right into others’ eyes and walked in slouching posture.😞

QQ as the elder sister, never blamed Gigi for occupying all her toys and bed. She chose to be tolerant as the tender way to welcome Gigi joining their family.🥺🥺 With all the time that QQ and Gigi spend following each other around, they can finally get along well and have developed a strong bond.🧡

QQ is resting in peace, but the way how she epitomized showing the simple and pure love to others is the thing will never be forgot. QQ is always there in the hearts of Gigi and her owners. 🤍🤍

美國在台協會對前總統李登輝辭世表達深切哀悼

美國在台協會對前總統李登輝的辭世表示最深切的哀悼，李前總統是民主改革先行者，也是美國的夥伴和摯友。在李前總統的領導下，台灣在短短十多年間從戒嚴時期轉型成全面民主體制；李前總統也在其任內奠定了美台夥伴關係的基石，讓印太地區及全世界皆獲益甚多。作為美國愛荷華州立大學和康乃爾大學的校友，李前總統也體現了強健的美台人民情誼。李前總統成功帶領台灣轉型成民主與自由的燈塔，並鞏固美台雙邊友誼，他的貢獻將持續深深影響未來數個世代。

Statement on the Passing of Former President Lee Teng-hui

AIT expresses its deepest condolences upon the passing of Lee Teng-hui, former president, reformer, partner, and friend of the United States. Taiwan’s astonishing transition from martial law to full democratization in a little over a decade took place under President Lee’s leadership, and forms the foundation of the U.S.-Taiwan partnership that has brought so much benefit to the Indo-Pacific region and the world. An alumnus of Iowa State University and Cornell University, President Lee also epitomized the strong people-to-people ties which bind the United States and Taiwan. President Lee’s success in transforming Taiwan into a beacon of freedom and democracy and in cementing the U.S.-Taiwan friendship will be felt by many future generations.

J.R. Smith was a one-man breakaway, his eyes widening as he sprang toward the basket, the ball rising over his head for a rim-rattling windmill dunk.

Clank!

It bounced off the iron and back toward halfcourt, the crowd moaning and coach George Karl nearly tipping over backward in his chair.

That one play both epitomized the Nuggets' shoddy, senseless play Saturday night and ignited the short-handed Sacramento Kings to a surprising 118-115 win that dealt the Nuggets a blow to their playoff plans.

"There's no reason for this team to come in here and beat us on our own floor, as good as we were playing on this floor," Allen Iverson said after the Nuggets fell to 31-8 at home. "They were playing without their two best players. No reason for it. It's unacceptable."

Kevin Martin scored 36 points despite missing Sacramento's shootaround with the stomach flu and the Kings capitalized on Kenyon Martin's one-game suspension by getting 29 points from Francisco Garcia and 23 from Mikki Moore.

"We didn't have a stopper mentality, a guy that could help us with those guys," lamented Karl, who was so incensed at K-Mart's suspension that he had a heated conversation with NBA executive vice president Stu Jackson earlier in the week.

The Kings, out of playoff contention and missing Ron Artest (thumb) and Brad Miller (leg), won their fourth straight game and snapped Denver's nine-game home winning streak. They took advantage of sloppy play and silly mistakes by the Nuggets, who got 47 points from Carmelo Anthony, two shy of his career high.

Kevin Martin gave them more than they could have hoped for, sinking all 13 of his free throws and converting a trio of 3-pointers.

"Kevin was not healthy," Kings coach Reggie Theus said. "He played through it. His stomach was hurting. He didn't even make it to shooting practice. I wasn't sure I was even going to play him. Kevin said he wanted to play, and you saw the results."

Instead of moving into a seventh-place tie with Dallas, Denver fell into a tie with idle Golden State for the eighth and final playoff spot in the wild Western Conference. The Nuggets visit the Warriors on Thursday night in a game that's suddenly a must-win.

"The sun will come up tomorrow and we're still tied," Karl said. "We kind of gave back the little bit that we've earned. But giving up 118 points to that team was disappointing."

Artest was a late scratch with a strained left thumb, seemingly negating any advantage Sacramento might have had facing a Nuggets team without Kenyon Martin, who had to sit out after picking up his sixth flagrant foul of the season.

Despite playing poorly, the Nuggets had a chance on their final possession to send the game into overtime.

After a timeout with 4.3 seconds left, J.R. Smith inbounded the ball to Marcus Camby, who gave it right back, but Smith's 3-pointer at the buzzer bounced off the front of the iron and high off the backboard.

"He's the best guy on our team making the tough 3, and with four seconds to go, you're probably going to get a tough 3," Karl said. "And I've seen him make the shot he took."

Linas Kleiza started in place of Kenyon Martin and scored 28 points, 21 in the first 18 minutes, helping Denver take a 41-32 lead. The Nuggets looked as if they were going to cruise to an easy win even without K-Mart, by far their best player over the last 1 1/2 months.

It was the Kings, however, who went to the locker room with a 59-56 lead behind 17 first-half points from their own K-Mart.

"In the second quarter we lost our discipline, our mental direction," Karl said. "We thought the game was going to be easy. J.R. missed a dunk and we kind of got sloppy with the basketball."

Iverson cringed as the Nuggets began to fritter away their early 12-point lead.

"They just played better than us, and there's no reason for that. As serious as this game was, and the magnitude of this game, there's no reason for it," he said. "I told 'Melo during the first half when they came back and took the lead and the momentum was going their way, I told him I didn't feel good about this game."

And now he doesn't feel so good about the Nuggets' tenuous hold on a playoff spot, either.

"I'm definitely concerned if we're going to play like this," Iverson said. "We've got to play better teams than them down the stretch. I'm confident, but, yeah, I'm concerned."

Game notes
The Kings also were without G Beno Udrih (back). ... The Nuggets' only other home loss to a team with a losing record came on Nov. 27 against Indiana (112-110).

For one night, Linas Kleiza overshadowed Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony.


Kleiza scored a career-high 41 points and grabbed nine rebounds as the Denver Nuggets beat the Utah Jazz 120-109 on Thursday night.

"I've now scored 40 points on the highest stage you can ever score," said Kleiza, whose previous career-high of 29 came March 15 against the Los Angeles Lakers.

"It was definitely a special night," Kleiza said. "I will remember this night for the rest of my life."

The Nuggets have been searching for a consistent third scorer behind Anthony and Iverson, and Kleiza filled the role Thursday. He got going early, leaking out on the fast break and getting easy layups. He then moved to the outside, going 4-for-8 from 3-point range.

"He got a couple of easy ones, and once you get a couple of layups, the basket looks bigger," said Iverson, who had 28 points. "He played a great game, and hopefully he can continue to play that way."

Kleiza scored 27 points in the first half, 20 in the second quarter when Denver took a 61-59 lead at the break.

"I knew after the first half when I had 27 it was going to be a special night," Kleiza said.

Kleiza had 39 points when he stepped to the line with 3:44 left. The home crowd gave him a big ovation as he sank both free throws for Denver's final points of the game.

Kleiza wasn't the only one racking up special numbers against the Jazz. Marcus Camby tied his career high in rebounds (24) and blocks (11) to help the Nuggets end a two-game losing streak.

"Camby had a terrific game," Utah head coach Jerry Sloan said. "He ran at the basketball and blocked shots and really had us guessing what was happening out on the floor."

Despite big nights from Kleiza and Camby, the Jazz trailed by just two after a pair of free throws by Mehmet Okur midway through the third quarter. But the Nuggets kept pushing the ball, and Anthony scored eight of his 23 points in the final three minutes of the period as Denver grabbed a 98-88 lead heading into the fourth.

The Nuggets kept up the pace, going on a 10-3 run in the first 3:09 of the final quarter to take a 108-91 lead. The Jazz never got closer than 11 the rest of the way, and Denver led by as many as 21.

It was a different Denver team than the one that lost two straight earlier this week.

"I didn't think our guys were hungry enough on the two games on the road, and they were subservient to A.I. and Melo," Nuggets head coach George Karl said. "Tonight, there was more of play basketball and go."

No one epitomized that more than Kleiza. Before the game, Anthony Carter encouraged him to run the floor, and the point guard rewarded him by feeding him the ball.

"He got most of it leaking out," said guard Deron Williams, who led the Jazz with 23 points. "They got the rebound and he was running. When the shot was missed he was gone."

Gone, too, is Utah's four-game winning streak that helped them creep back into the Northwest Division race. With the Western Conference extremely competitive this year, the Nuggets and Jazz know that winning their division might be the only way to secure a playoff spot, which made Thursday's game a little more important.

"These are the games you have to win," Williams said. "You have to win in your division."

Game notes
Karl is hoping to see Nuggets F Nene on Friday. Nene had a tumor removed from his right testicle Monday and tests are being conducted to determine if it is benign. ... Jazz G Ronnie Price was activated after missing four games with a sprained left ankle. ... Nuggets F Kenyon Martin missed his second straight game. After Monday's loss in Charlotte, Martin had a minor medical procedure to treat a staph infection. Karl said Martin might play Saturday against Minnesota. ... Camby has eight 20-rebound games this season.
